Dpgsbody55 Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Enjoying your build so far. I wish I'd painted the cross on the rudder when I did mine. The decals cover well, with no bleeding through of the colours underneath, but still look like decals . Cheers, Michael Kriss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriss Posted March 28, 2022 Author Share Posted March 28, 2022 It's just a pity that there are no masks to paint the lyres on the wings, I'll apply a decal here. Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriss Posted March 29, 2022 Author Share Posted March 29, 2022 Not all parts of the model are in the photo, but all of them have already been painted with the bottom color. Fanes, Greg W, LSP_Kevin and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking tremendous so far! Have you tried here? There may be a chance someone has already made a paint mask for them on the paint mask forums.

Kriss Posted March 30, 2022 Author Share Posted March 30, 2022 Another camouflage color applied, but there will be one more coat. Because on this one the shading shows through too much after drying.

Kriss Posted March 31, 2022 Author Share Posted March 31, 2022 I don't know how it is for you, but I sometimes take the model to work and there I can build it. Being at night I was able to improve the camouflage painting. The only disadvantage is that I can not take good pictures there as well as now at home due to renovation.

Kriss Posted April 1, 2022 Author Share Posted April 1, 2022 The engine cover was riveted and put together. Except of two side covers which will be next to show engine. Camouflage colors were applied but not all of them. Same goes for the chassis, one built up and the other with covers removed to show the resin wheels with beautiful CMK camouflage.

Kriss Posted April 3, 2022 Author Share Posted April 3, 2022 The fun continues, with another color of camouflage applied. Greg W, Pavel Vacek, Christoffer Lindelav and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldbaldguy Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Wow. Did you paint the camouflage freehand or did you use a stencil or some other kind of mask for the green color? It looks to be very tedious job. Kriss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriss Posted April 3, 2022 Author Share Posted April 3, 2022 I hand painted the green color, I agree it takes time. I used to try to paint with masks but the effect was poor so I gave up on them. Oldbaldguy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1 Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Fantastic painting. I'm also quite jealous that you can get some modeling done at work! Kriss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
